Description
A network of mines on a Japanese island infamous for using conscripted wartime labour was added to UNESCO's World Heritage register Saturday after South Korea dropped earlier objections to its listing.
The Sado gold and silver mines, now a popular tourist attraction, are believed to have started operating as early as the 12th century and produced until after World War II. FILE IMAGES
